    I’ve found that experience is worth a lot more then a masters degree, unless you want to teach. I would focus on getting a job. This would be a great question for the Art of the Edit forum.

    Get an entry level job at a local post and go from there. Come in early, go home late and hang out in the editing bays as much as you can (as long as it doesn’t interfere w/your job duties of course). As Stephen said, post graduate work is really only worthwhile if you plan to teach. Diplomas don’t carry very much weight in this line of work.
